Ritual dances from the Province of Huelva belong to its intangible cultural heritage and have been classified as property of ethnological interest. All of them take place in the framework of religious festivals devoted to the Eucharist, the Virgin Mary or the patron saints and come along with processions following the rhythm from drums and bagpipes. Regarded as signs of local identity, some sculptural monuments have been erected in their honour. Five of them were sculpted by Martín Lagares, an artist from La Palma del Condado who has been able to reproduce the vestments and capture the movement of the dancers.
